What is the scientific name for when cells swell and burst?
The scientific term for when cells swell and burst is "lysis". This can occur due to factors such as osmotic imbalance or physical damage to the cell membrane.
What will happen to an egg in hypo tonic water?
In a hyptonic solution, water will move into the cells of the egg, and it will swell, and the cells will burst.
What is happening when the cell start to swell up with water?
Osmosis is taking place
Which suspension when viewed under the microscope would contain red blood cell that had swollen and burst apart?
A hypotonic suspension would cause red blood cells to swell and potentially burst when viewed under a microscope. In a hypotonic environment, the concentration of solutes outside the cell is lower than inside, leading to water influx into the cells. This osmotic pressure can cause the cells to swell and eventually lyse (burst), resulting in the release of hemoglobin and cellular contents.
Why do human cells die in freshwater?
As, human cell is an animal cell. When it is placed in an hypotonic solution like freshwater,it will finally swell and burst

What will happen to an egg in hypo tonic water?

What happens when we place RBC in hypo-tonic solution?
When red blood cells (RBCs) are placed in a hypotonic solution, water moves into the cells due to a higher concentration of solutes inside the cell. This causes the cells to swell and potentially burst, a process known as hemolysis.
What is it called when animal cells burst?
When animal cells burst it's called lysis.
What would be the effect of fluid between plasma and red blood cellsof someone using a hypotonic saline?
A hypotonic infusion will cause (all) the cells to swell. If they swell enough, they burst.
What is happening when the cell start to swell up with water?
Osmosis is taking place
What solution that causes a cell to swell cause of osmosis?
A hypotonic solution, with a lower solute concentration compared to the inside of the cell, causes water to move into the cell via osmosis. This influx of water makes the cell swell and potentially burst if the osmotic pressure becomes too high.
Why do jellyfish burst when moved from saltwater to fresh water?
Jellyfishes are evolved to live in saltwater, and their cells have mechanisms for absorbing water and excreting salts. However, in freshwater this ability works against them, causing them to swell up with water, and their cells burst.
What happens to red blood cells when they are placed in distilled water?
because of osmosis it would get fatter and fatter with water till it burst. aww.
Why do human cells die in freshwater?
As, human cell is an animal cell. When it is placed in an hypotonic solution like freshwater,it will finally swell and burst
What happens to cells in a hypotonic environment?
In a hypotonic environment, cells take in water via osmosis, causing them to swell and potentially burst if the cell wall is not strong enough to withstand the influx of water.
An animal cell that surrounded by fresh water will burst because osmosis causes?
water to move into the cell, causing the cell to swell and eventually burst due to the influx of water.
